In the Corner with Dan Hughes

082-111212 In the Old-Time Radio Corner - X Minus 1

Many of the great authors who prospered during the Golden Age of
Science Fiction were represented on the radio show X-1. Its
early shows were adaptations of stories appearing in Astounding
Science Fiction magazine, and most of its later stories were from
Galaxy Science Fiction magazine.

Poul Andersen, Robert Heinlein, Isaac Asimov, Robert Bloch,
Theodore Sturgeon, and Ray Bradbury all had stories dramatized on
the show.

This episode was written by Ray Bradbury. It originally
appeared in The Saturday Evening Post on September 23, 1950, under
the title The World the Children Made. It aired as an X-1
episode entitled The Veldt on August 4, 1955.

I might add that this version has a happier ending than does the
original story.
